How many pounds equal a bushel?

Ah, a bushel is a unit of volume, not weight, my friend. It's about 32 quarts or 8 gallons, depending on what you're measuring. So, the weight of a bushel can vary greatly depending on what you're filling it with - like feathers, Apples, or rocks. Just remember, nature doesn't always fit into neat little boxes, and that's what makes it so beautiful.
